Default opening a file


I have this code that changes words into hyperlinks, but it can't do it
to other files. So I want the program to be able to open the file it
self and then run the program. I want a message box to pop up to ask
for the file to open, but I want nothing else changed in the code



Code:
--------------------

Sub MakeHyperlink()

ActiveWorksheet.Select
Range("B7").Select
Dim strCellData As Variant

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

Range("G7").Select

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

Range("N7").Select

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

Range("X7").Select

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

Range("AG7").Select

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

Range("AO7").Select

Do Until ActiveCell.Value = ""

strCellData = ActiveCell.Value
ActiveCell.Value = strCellData
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

'ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:="'0'!A1", TextToDisplay:="www.puritan.com"
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="http:\\" & Selection.Value, TextToDisplay:=Selection.Value
Loop

End Sub
